Quote of the Month

"Journaling is like whispering to one’s self and listening at the same time."
— Mina Murray

A Soft Start — Journaling My Way Back to Myself

August was another whirlwind—mom-ing two kids getting ready for college, building my business while handling all the day-to-day, hosting weekly coaches calls, 1:1 coaching, juggling social life, phone calls, and every administrative detail (still just me over here, folks!). I was exhausted and frustrated—convinced I hadn’t accomplished a thing.

One night, I realized something: I hadn’t taken my own advice. I love journaling, but life had pushed it to the back burner. That, right there, was a red flag.

So I started small. At the end of each workday, I simply wrote down three things I accomplished—just three. And magic started happening.

What began as a short list—like “answered that email, cooked dinner, prepped for coaching”—grew over the week. My list went from three to six, and then included what I’d started and planned to finish the next day. Suddenly, all the invisible work became visible. I saw that progress was happening.

And you know what? The exhaustion did too—it lifted. My stress faded because I knew things were getting done.

Journaling doesn't require deep essays. It can be as simple as recognizing what you've done. That gentle reminder each evening can shift your whole outlook.

Here’s why this habit works—beyond just feeling good:

• Writing by hand stimulates more brain regions, boosting memory and learning more than typing ever could

• Expressive writing can significantly reduce symptoms of anxiety, PTSD, and depression—sometimes up to 9% for anxiety and 6% for PTSD

• Journaling helps us process emotions, reduce stress, gain clarity, and better understand recurring patterns in our lives

So here’s your gentle nudge for September: journal just a little. Let your brain see your wins and your heart feel the quiet peace of proof you’re making a difference.

This Month’s Practice: The Little List That Changed My Mindset

Your September Invitation:

1. Each night, grab whatever you journal in—paper, app, or sticky note.

2. Write down just three things you accomplished today.

3. Optional: Add one thing you started that you'll finish tomorrow.

Coaching Spotlight: Turn Reflection into Real Forward Motion

Awareness is powerful. But pairing it with intentional action? That’s where real shifts happen.

In my 60-minute coaching sessions or 30-minute Coffee Talks, we’ll use those journaling insights as your launchpad. We translate small awareness into strategic movement—mindset work, clarity, boundary setting, and more.

Feel like you’re coaching yourself more than living? Let’s make that transition intentional. Book your session today and let’s move forward together. Book now!

Thinking of Coaching? You’re More Naturally Skilled Than You Think.

My friends and family, still get free coaching in the form of phone calls or lunch chats. If you're nodding at this, remember: you’re already doing the work. Maybe it’s time to step into it fully.

✨ Quote of the Month

"Your life does not get better by chance, it gets better by change."
— Jim Rohn

🌿 A Soft Start

This Summer, I Took My Own Advice

This past month, I gave myself a gift I rarely allow: the gift of not planning every moment.

We spent a week in sunny San Diego — and it was exactly the reset I didn’t know I needed. Each morning started slowly in the hot tub, steam rising while we laughed and talked about what we might do that day. We cooked together as a family in our Airbnb kitchen (my daughter nailed the guacamole!), and when we finally ventured out, we strolled, explored, and just let the day unfold.

Even our trip to Disneyland was different — fewer meltdowns, no diaper bags, and no rushing from ride to ride. Traveling with adult children has a way of surprising you. It’s less about hitting every attraction and more about soaking in the joy of being together. Instead of packing every moment with rides, fireworks, and tight schedules, I let myself be—not just the family tour guide, but a woman who could sit back, soak in the joy, and leave space for the unexpected.

And you know what? It was better that way.

I didn’t make an itinerary. I didn’t check emails (okay, barely). I didn’t hustle. I just… was.

It reminded me that rest doesn’t always mean doing nothing — sometimes it means doing things differently. Slower. With more intention. Less hustle, more heart.

If you’ve been waiting for a sign to let go of the pressure and ease up on the planning — this is it.
Unplug, breathe, and remember: joy often lives in the quiet moments we don’t schedule.

🕊️ Whisper & Wish Monthly Issue #3

✨ Quote of the Month

“Almost everything will work again if you unplug it for a few minutes — including you.”
– Anne Lamott

🌿 A Soft Start

The rush of launching is fading. The swirl of ideas, excitement, and planning is settling into something steadier.

And now… it’s time to exhale.

July is the halfway point of the year — a chance to pause, check in, and gently ask: How am I, really?
This is a sacred space between doing and being. Between hustle and healing.

This month, I’m slowing down to listen — to myself, to this community, and to what’s working (or not). I invite you to do the same.

You don’t have to restart your whole life. But you can realign with what matters.

💬 Let’s Talk About It: Reclaiming Your Energy

Here’s the truth: no one else is coming to manage your energy for you. That’s your sacred job. And it starts with awareness.

This month, I want to gently challenge the “push-through” mindset. What would happen if you took a beat instead?

• Where is your energy leaking?
• What’s fueling you — and what’s draining you?
• What would it look like to protect your peace… without guilt?

We don’t always need a new plan. Sometimes we just need permission to rest.

☕ Coaching Corner

This month I’ve had some incredible 1:1 sessions with women who are carrying a lot.
We’re talking full schedules, emotional loads, invisible labor, aging parents, breakups, burnout — and still they show up.

Here’s the thing: You don’t have to hold it all alone.

💬 In our 60-minute Coaching Sessions, we dig deep. These are full support calls where we strategize, vent, rebuild, and reset.

☕ Prefer something quicker? The 30-minute Coffee Talk is a space to release one heavy thing and walk away lighter.

✨ Coaching is not about having someone fix you. It’s about having someone with you while you rise.

Let’s do that together. Book now!

🧘‍♀️ Try This

This Month’s Challenge:
Each morning this week, take 3 minutes to ask yourself:
• What do I need more of today?
• What do I need less of?
• What can I say no to… just for today?

The reset starts with noticing.

💌 Until Next Time…

Whether you’re resting, realigning, or reclaiming your time — know that you’re not behind.
You’re exactly where you need to be to begin again.

With love,

🕊️ Whisper & Wish Monthly Issue #2

✨ Quote of the Month

“Don’t wait for the perfect moment. Take the moment and make it perfect.”
– Unknown

🌿 A Soft Start

June is the month it all goes live — the work, the vision, the late-night brainstorming sessions over lukewarm coffee. On June 18, the Whisper & Wish website officially opens its doors to the world.

This space wasn’t created just to exist — it was built with intention. It’s a space for women who are ready to be heard, to grow, to step forward in their own lives. It’s for you, your sister, your best friend… maybe even the version of you from six months ago.

This is not just a website. It’s the start of something meaningful. And you’re here at the ground level.

💬 Let’s Talk About It: Putting It Out There

Whether you're launching a business or sharing your thoughts aloud for the first time, there's power in putting something out there.

This month’s focus is about visibility — not for attention, but for alignment. When we share what we’ve created (or what we’re dreaming about), we begin to attract the people, support, and opportunities we need.

So here’s what I’m putting out there this month:

• The Whisper & Wish website goes live on June 18 🎉

• The Whisper & Wish Swag Shop opens with products designed to inspire — tees, mugs, and hats with messages that speak truth, spark action, and start conversations.

Got feedback? I’d love to hear what kinds of messages you want to wear or gift.

☕ Coaching Corner

Let’s talk real support — not fluffy inspo, but practical, soul-centered momentum.
This month, I’m offering two ways to work 1:1 with me:

🌀 60-Minute Coaching Sessions
Rooted in the From Whisper to Roar method, these sessions are all about clarity, confidence, and next steps. Whether it’s setting boundaries, making bold moves, or designing a morning routine that actually works for your life — this is your space.

☕ 30-Minute Coffee Talks
Need a sounding board or a push in the right direction? These mini-sessions are perfect for quick clarity and calm, no pressure — just presence.

✨ The value isn’t in the length of the session. It’s in the way you’ll walk away: with permission, power, and a plan.

Book directly through the website once it launches, or DM me now to grab a spot early.

🧘‍♀️ Try This

This Month’s Challenge:
• Pick one thing you’ve been sitting on — a post, a project, a personal truth.
• Share it this month. Even if it's messy. Even if it's small.

You don’t have to shout. You just have to show up.

💌 Until Next Time…

This isn’t about a perfect launch. It’s about a powerful beginning.
Thank you for being part of it — you’re what makes this real.

With love,
Kristin 💫

✨ Quote of the Month

“Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.”
– Arthur Ashe

🌿 A Soft Start

This month marks the very beginning of something new — and something deeply personal.

Behind the scenes, I’ve been building a space for women to feel seen, supported, and empowered to take small, intentional steps toward change.

From website creation to filming the first videos to dreaming up what’s next, it’s been a mix of excitement, nerves, and long nights — but it’s happening. And the heart of it all is simple: to help now and grow to help even more people in the future.

You don’t need to have it all figured out to get started. I sure didn’t. But starting anyway? That’s where the magic is.

💬 Let’s Talk About It: Planting Seeds

Every big idea starts with a quiet whisper. A nudge. A gut feeling that won’t go away.

This month’s focus is all about planting seeds.
What are you dreaming about?
What are you quietly working on, even if no one sees it yet?

This community is here for exactly that — those moments when you need encouragement to keep going, even when it feels like you’re still at the starting line.

🧘‍♀️ Try This

This Month’s Challenge:
• Write down 3 goals you want to plant this month (personal, professional, or emotional).
• Choose one to nurture — with a simple step every week.

✨ Remember: It’s not about doing more. It’s about doing what matters. ✨

💌 Until Next Time…

Here’s to fresh starts and quiet beginnings.
I’m so glad you’re here at the start of this new journey.

With love,
Kristin 💫
